Indican Pictures Tabs Apr. 10 For The DVD Debut Of Writer/Director Norman Gregory McGuire's The Lucky Man


DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey
It was originally slated for early January, but the box office success from the film’s limited theatrical run (late December of last year) gave Indican Pictures a little extra time to promote writer/director Norman Gregory McGuire surreal “road trip” story, The Lucky Man.  It will now be available on Apr. 10 (the ARR will be 109 days).

Jesse James (As Good as it Gets, The Butterfly Effect, The Amityville Horror, etc.) stars as a con artist preacher named Reverend Johnny Jones, who discovers that he actually does have the “power.”   His scam is to move from small town to small town with his tag-along girlfriend, Rebecca (Mariana Paola Vicente — Self/Less, Nocturna), preaching to the locals — he’s actually pretty good at it — to get enough money for the next motel, the next round of drugs and enough booze to make him forget what a lowlife grifter he is.

When a pair of young thugs decide one evening that he’s an easy mark things happen … unexpected things, that is, as Johnny is able to revive one of his attackers from the dead (the results of a stray bullet).  Rebecca listens to his tale, but thinks it’s the drugs or booze talking.   

But when it happens again, this time he causes harm to an old man by accident and then makes it right.  She’s now a believer!   This power to heal … it proves to be both a blessing and a curse as events unfold and the sins of the past have a strange and ironic way of overtaking this newfound “healer” and his faithful companion.
